The Science Team Meeting 2023 will provide an opportunity for detailed discussion of 4FS results based on near-final survey catalogues, along with the outcomes of the Catalogue and OpR3.5 Readiness Reviews happening in March.
We also plan to incorporate a L2 pipeline progress review. The programme will revolve mainly around inter-survey coordination and discussions within the Infrastructure Working Groups (IWGs).
